Why has Gen Grevious gone missing from my Fleet Store?

I am here just to ask why CG did you nerf the appearance of GG in the fleet store? After basically announcing to the world that he will be the best G13 toon as well as a true leader in the Geo TB, why have you made his shard spawn in fleet store maybe once every two weeks? With 2x refreshes a day a long with the timed change for my fleet store, I have only been able to purchase GG shards 3x in the past 2 months.

Surely you can't believe making a f2p character who's shards can only be purchased in fleet or shard store is a good choice? I am sure I am not the only one who has to use his shard store currency for gear. 1,125 currency for 5 GG shards vs spending 210? currency to get 5x mk5 stun gun ( and other hard to collect gear pieces) is really a no choice.

Can we please get some info on why this change was made? I know that I was not farming GG consistently prior to the announcement of him being the best choice for G13, so yes a lot of people had him at 7* for a long time while he was basically useless. However he's not going to be meta defining in the arena or even GAC so making his shard spawn so rare just has no up side.

Thank you for all the hard work!

    He's no more missing than Logray, Dengar, TAx1 or any of the other shard packs which share a shop slot, they are just random.

    But when you want them you check every refresh so you are acutely aware when they're not there and when you are done farming them you only notice the occasions when they are there. :D

    I have no hard data as I was not logging anything at the time, however I do feel like I saw him in my fleet shop a lot more often then 3x in 2 months time. Of course no hard data and maybe RNG just really hates me. However, it is horrid how very rare his shard is to show up.
  • Some times he shows up 3 times a day, othertimes hes awol for 3 weeks. Rng bro it sucks

    He is always in the shard shop. The cost would be higher than in the fleet shop but with the crystals you are using for refreshes, that cost goes down comparatively.

    I got him this morning after not seeing him for a few days. Four more packs and I'm done. Then of course I will see him all the time! :D

    It's not nerfed
  • He only has a 1/8 chance of spawning & only 3 spawns a day.

    So even if your RNG is being perfectly "average" then you would only see him once every 3 days.

    More likely you get him 2-3x in a 2 day period & then he's gone for 10+ days.

    He was missing for like half a year for me one time. He must’ve taken the same vacation that Malaks on.

    That's how it always works. I swear I see Logray in the store at least once a day now that he's at 7*.
  • It feels like he's missing at times, I know. I'm farming him too. But I can confirm, he is still in there. I've seen him about 4 times over the last month. He's rare, not missing.

    Padme starts this week, what did you expect?

    Has nothing to do with padme and everything to do with him being such a big hitter against even DR/Malak squads. So CG does not want a f2p character to be all over the map wiping out even half the DR/Malak Squads.

    Respectfully disagree with both of you.

    It's RNG.

    Respectfully disagree with you TVF

    Willing to wager you a $20 gift card that GG is weighted to show less often than tarkin, vader and AA.

    Take the bet or shut up

    I don't think you've understood my post.

    I agree with you that GG is weighted less. It's still RNG if he shows up. The two posts I quoted claimed the rate has been reduced by CG because of either the Padme event coming up or him beating DR/Malak. That's what I disagreed with.

    However you made it sound as if RNG is the only thing affecting GGs show up rate and in that is where you and I disagree.

    I never said that though, and I don't believe it, so we can't disagree on it.

  • im 50/100 with GG. I went the whole month of July without seeing his shards once. That drought broke yesterday finally. At this rate it will take another 10 months.

    You're all wrong.

    You have to look at each fleet node. One could have 10 characters to shuffle through and another could have 5.

    Btw u can get a warning for ur last sentence bud.

    But you only mentioned the rng part, so any respectful disagreer would infer you didn’t believe GG was weighted lower.

    That would not be a reasonable inference since RNG does not mean and has never meant that all options are weighted equally.

    He agreed with you, so you can drop the argument now. If you read his second post carefully, you would know that.
